First off, I want to thank all of you for readingContinue reading “ON MY MIND – PARIS, FRANCE – the first weekend in Lockdown”

ONE FROM THE HEART, FROM ME TO YOU……
Last night, while I was reading articles online about the virus, I heard the news in France. “Starting at midnight Saturday, (last night), all non-essential businesses — including cafes, restaurants and movie theatres — will be closed until further notice, French Prime Minister Édouard Philippe said. Banks, gas stations, supermarkets and pharmacies will remain open”Continue reading “ONE FROM THE HEART, FROM ME TO YOU……”
A WORD OF EXPLANATION…..
Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes. – Carl Jung After my last post, I had several people who care about me ask if I were all right? I think they were taking my post literally. No, it is/was metaphorical. Continue reading “A WORD OF EXPLANATION…..”
RANDOM RAMBLINGS IN PARIS
Today, I am going to ramble and try to clarify my thinking at the same time. I have now been in Paris for three weeks and three days. I cannot begin to tell you all that has happened during that time. A LOT. I have solved problem after problem, some successfully, others not so successfully. Continue reading “RANDOM RAMBLINGS IN PARIS”
“Pick Yourself up, dust yourself off, and start all over again…..”
Here’s to those who still believe, here’s to the losers, bless them all. Here’s to the winners all of us can be! Thank you, Frank Sinatra. What beautiful music you made for all of us. This is Day 17. So, I have been here a little over two weeks. And, a LOT has happened sinceContinue reading ““Pick Yourself up, dust yourself off, and start all over again…..””
PARIS BEGINNING – FIRST TEN DAYS!
For as long as I can remember, I have thought to myself, I will figure this out! And, I would figure whatever it was – out, no matter the consequence. I did not think there existed many situations or problems that I could not figure out some kind of solution. Resourceful? Maybe. Maybe foolhardy. MostContinue reading “PARIS BEGINNING – FIRST TEN DAYS!”
A BRIEF INTERLUDE
I need to rest my mind because I am a bit overwhelmed at the moment. Nothing is working. Well, that’s not true. The hotspot is working. Otherwise I would not be able to get the internet. But the in-house Wi-Fi is not working. And, I don’t know how to access it. Neither does my landlord. Continue reading “A BRIEF INTERLUDE”
A SHORT RAMBLING…..
It has been a long emotional month, preparing to change into a new life – AGAIN. I felt the same way, or at least, similar, when I went away to the University of Wisconsin from Georgia; when I went away to Los Angeles, California from Georgia, when I moved to Nice, France, from California. And,Continue reading “A SHORT RAMBLING…..”
THE PARIS REQUIREMENT
Paris has certain requirements for me. I have raised the bar. In my last remaining days in Nice, it is bittersweet. It was here that I was introduced to France, it customs, its people, its loves and its hates. It is VERY different from the United States, where each state is different – like 50Continue reading “THE PARIS REQUIREMENT”
22 DAYS TO GO – Paris-Bound
We are living in interesting times! That is definitely one way to look at the news. I don’t like most of what I see and hear. AND, I am not getting my way with most things, but I will concede– the news is not boring. Alarming, yes. Boring, no. And, when I am just doingContinue reading “22 DAYS TO GO – Paris-Bound”
